We use hweight32 for counting bits elsewhere in the driver, which is a
little bit more self-explanatory, but I guess is_power_of_2 works too.

I think Chris pointed out on a previous iteration that it would be
easier / cleaner to move the contents of this loop out to a new function
that returns the value of the read and then just call

        ret = wait_for(do_sagv_disable(...), 1);
        if (ret)
                DRM_ERROR("Timeout");
